Title:
  Check/Uncheck updates from ppa inverts selection of packages

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  If i uncheck or check a PPA in the updatemanager view than the
  selection setting of all the packages under that particular PPA will
  only be inverted. While that is correct most of the time it is not
  correct in the following situation:

  Deselect a package from a PPA.
  Deselect the entire PPA

  Result: The unselected packages are now selected. The previously
  selected packages are now (correctly) deselected.

  Suggestion: Unselecting a PPA must not simply invert the settings of
  all underlying packages. It must also check what the current setting
  is and keep this into account. If the package is already deselected ->
  do nothing.

  Same goes for reselecting a PPA.
